I just upgraded to this kernel and tested intensively, and found that , with the same config I'm using from 2.6.7 (I used make oldconfig) the alsa audio driver vt-82xx gives me some issues. I have a gigabyte GA-7VA motherboard (realtek chipset). Alsaconf setted the driver vt82xx for me, and was working fine until upgrade. After upgrade the load of alsactl complain about name mismatch for control #45 , and this could be nothing. But when I try to play any music, the music comes out crippled and with cracks as a very-old-and-scratched vinyl disc. I don't know if this is a kernel-2.6.13 bug or if the patch 4300_via-vt6410.patch is causing that. I tried to fool emerge with a fake patch file but I didn't had success (md5?), if you know how to de-patch please explain,I'll test. (rollbacking kernel result in music playing fine again). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.get alsa working with realtek chipset (using alsaconf) 2.upgrade kernel to gentoo-sources-2.6.13 3.try to hear music
hum, I had forgot. Gigabyte GA-7VA has vt8235 chip onboard.
Have you tried using alsa-driver package instead of in-kernel drivers?
My fault, I unpatched & repatched 4300 just to discover I had to lower volumes with alsamixer (that does not complains of control #45.... boh) sorry (blush... o^^o )
